Amigo Linux has most of the sources including rox. I can post a couple patches for no root warning and improved mimetypes._________________Check out my github repositories. I may eventually get around to updating my blogspot.

Did anyone cobble together this pup? Is there an iso to try? I've been tinkering with Pulp 03 and find it exciting and refreshing (and it is teaching me lots of under the hood stuff...). I'm aiming for a lightweight system that I can add Textmaker 2002 or FreeOffice 2012 onto (because they seem really quick to load and more capable than Abiword), along with a good pdf reader.
Also need a browser that supports javascript (wish I didn't need it) and https. On-the-fly Youtube is not a necessity, but a downloader would be handy.
I'm gradually getting pulp03 shaped as I want it, but maybe someone already has a nice iso like this? I'm thinking of something to run on say, laptops from around the year 2000 - 2008ish? (ie: not needing newer kernels). I'm realising now how good the 412 pups were, and have written a script to get me past some of the usb detection probs I seemed to be having with them.

it requires gnome-1.4 (thus gtk1.2) ... I wonder what a full gnome-1.4 environment would feel like if we could even find the sources._________________Check out my github repositories. I may eventually get around to updating my blogspot.

a lot of people that used bdb have switched to the permissively licensed, small and fast OpenLDAP LMDB since the Oracle fiasco (even the sqlite people recommend it)

It could be worthwhile to port gtk1 and gtk2.6 (with some useful backports like the ones wjaguar uses in the win32 version of mtpaint) to use the Apache Portable Runtime instead of glib (there is a lot of overlap) With future plans to create a permissive widget toolkit with a gtk compatibility layer similar to gtk-mui.

Nice plan. I'm reviving old GTK1 apps and porting them to musl/x86_64/Linux 3.x, so they can be used on modern distros.

I think we should focus on:
- Dillo 0.8.6 - it's in horrible shape, crashes every ~5 seconds on x86_64 with musl
- The last Gnumeric that supports GTK1 - it has a hard dependency on gnome-libs, same goes for Abiword 1.0.7 - they use the dialogs from libgnomeui
- The last Ted that supports GTK1
- gcalendar and gtkdiskfree - both crash on startup on x86_64
- gxine 0.2.1 - it no longer works with today's xine-lib_________________My homepageMy GitHub profile

The last Gnumeric that supports GTK1 - it has a hard dependency on gnome-libs, same goes for Abiword 1.0.7 - they use the dialogs from libgnomeui

And so what? Making some workalike that provides only the subset of libgnomeui's API functions which Abiword does actually use, will in all probability be far easier than dragging in the whole of ancient GNOME version. Same with gnome-libs and Gnumeric.
All the needed parts are already there, in the libs' source code, and only need some cutting away of the unused stuff.

- gxine 0.2.1 - it no longer works with today's xine-lib
I put a patch for mplayer on the pupngo thread a while back, (used the git gtk1-ectomy commits in reverse) so gxine shouldn't be that difficult if the have a version control system/

- Dillo 0.8.6 - it's in horrible shape, crashes every ~5 seconds on x86_64 with musl
Dillo does need some debugging but netsurf-fb can fill in or seamonkey-1.1.19+flash9. (some seamonkey bugs may have fixes already in version control that would apply cleanly)

- The last Ted that supports GTK1
I have tried Ted before and it was horribly buggy compared to beaver and Angel Ortega's minimum profit (mp) which also has a curses backend and scripting that can work on the same binary

Unfortunately goingnuts.dk is down but goingnuts had patched many of them.

- The last Gnumeric that supports GTK1 - it has a hard dependency on gnome-libs, same goes for Abiword 1.0.7 - they use the dialogs from libgnomeui
I've built it without them before by commenting out stuff (in configure and in code) and tweaking a few lines to use similar gtk widgets.

- gcalendar and gtkdiskfree - both crash on startup on x86_64
I was writing a gtkdialog replacement in gtk1 before goingnuts created gtkdialog1 that may be useful for testing the gtk libraries

I remember we found that glib needed some patches to work with musl...don't remember where they landed.

As far as GTK1.2 apps go, one I found very useful and rarely saw mentioned was geg.
manedit was one program that looked nice.
gato and gcrontab (IIRC) were functional for scheduling, but are mainly useful if you know the command and just want to skip the terminal: if you haven't read the man page, they suck.
And I'm betting everyone knows about xmms...
Image viewers...danpei, gtksee, paul.
